Another artist conversation takes place on Sunday in the Pavilion for Japanese Art, where Ohie Toshio will chat with visitors about the art of decorative bookbinding. Also on Sunday, Dr. Martin Polkinghorne, director of the University of Sydney Robert Christie Research Centre, discusses new research that offers new insight into the creation of the Gods of Angkor.

We have many, many exhibitions on view. Walter De Maria’s seminal The 2000 Sculpture is in the center of the Resnick Pavilion, right next to Ken Price Sculpture: A Retrospective, which continues to garner rave reviews. While you’re on that side of campus, head over to BCAM to see iconic works by Los Angeles artist Ed Ruscha and Michael Heizer’s Actual Size, which will be closing at the end of this month.

Bring the kids to Andell Family Sundays, starting at 12:30 pm, to explore the art of glass and to create your own studio glass–inspired art. Finally, the weekend wraps up with a free Sundays Live concert featuring violinist Axel Strauss and pianist Eric Le Van.
